Coming up, a discussion about drug cartels and a bank in London.

For nearly three decades, she's reported the action from the sidelines.

She started very young.

She's covered the NBA, NFL, Olympics, and the college football and basketball national championships.

And now, during these insane times in our world, Michelle Tofoya thinks we need a serious

So I'm looking online the other day and I'm looking online the other day and I'm looking for interesting stuff about drug cartels and I run across this book that's about to be released.

And let me just read you a couple of quick critiques or comments on the book.

Blackhurst tale would make an exciting novel. but alarmingly, this is a true story, carefully researched and told with gusto. Here's another one,

full of extraordinary revelations, epic storytelling about a shocking scandal. Read this.

And so I wanted to welcome the author of this book, Chris Blackhurst. The book is

My pleasure. What can I tell you? Should I tell you what the book's about?
